The 10th Anniversary Virginia Wine Expo presented by Kroger will be very special, offering you a singular opportunity to taste Virginia, Spanish, Portuguese and Sonoma County, California wines, craft beers, whiskeys, artisan burgers, global smoked cuisine, gourmet noodles and dumplings, and more. Learn why Travel + Leisure calls Richmond a top global destination and National Geographic said it's a place to travel for food, and discover why the "Capital of the South" has emerged as a craft beverage and culinary mecca.

Two New Events for 2017!

An extraordinary new event, A Noodle & Dumpling Affair, has been added to the schedule on Thursday evening. Held in the historic Hofheimer Building located in Scott's Addition, the epicenter of Richmond's craft beverage renaissance, this event will feature a cornucopia of noodles and dumplings from China, Korea, Japan, Vietnam, Thailand, Israel, Philipines, India, Poland, and Italy, plus exceptional wine, craft beer (from Scott's Addition breweries), sake and music. Amazing.

Burger Blast and SMOKED!

Both of these events sold out in 2016 and we expect the same again. Burger Blast has been dramatically expanded to include a record 22+ luscious artisan burgers, 35+ craft beers (including a "Stout Pavilion") and ciders, 40+ Virginia, Spanish, Portuguese and Sonoma, CA wines, and live music. A panel of judges will announce the Best Burger.

Main Events: Walk-Around Grand Tastings, March 11–12, 2017

As the Virginia Wine Expo’s biggest and most popular events, the Walk-Around Grand Tastings (held on Saturday and Sunday), are the best opportunity all year to taste and buy Virginia wine and to taste the wines of our 2017 International Guest Region, Spain and Portgual, and National Guest Region, Sonoma County, California. The tasting will be held indoors at the Greater Richmond Convention Center. At this all-inclusive event, 650+ bottles of wine will be available to taste. Also, specialty food and artisan goods from numerous vendors across Virginia and the U.S. will be available to sample and buy.
